The Myth of Prometheus – The Thief of Fire
Zeus was outraged by Prometheus' theft of fire and so punished the Titan by having him taken far to the east, perhaps the Caucasus. Here Prometheus was chained to a rock (or pillar) and Zeus sent an eagle to eat the Titan’s liver.
Even worse, the liver re-grew every night and the eagle returned each day to perpetually torment Prometheus.
